I enjoyed The Rock a lot. But I am easy.
Eta: I am torn as to whether I will see the new Fantastic Four, because on the one hand I couldn't bear to watch the first one, but on the other the Silver Surfer = love, so I don't know what to do.
Willow: It feels like we're going around in circles. Xander: Our circles are going around in circles. We got dizzy circles here.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
The last one was awful, one of the worst movies of its year, while the new one is a pleasure, one of the most enjoyable pictures of the season.
Huh. See, I didn't think the first movie was that awful. It was fun and enjoyable, for the most part.
Someone thought that was a good movie?
I love it. It's one of my favorites.

Maybe 1998 (Playing by Heart, which I've never seen, but looks like a good cast).
I tried to watch it. I did. It was on heavy rotation on one of the movie channels. Jon Stewart was adorable. But it drove me nuts, and I couldn't stand more than 15 minutes of it at a time.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Playing By Heart isn't a great movie, but it's essential for all Jon Stewart lovers.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
He's dead to me.
So glad I'm not the only one!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I liked the first FF movie. And I thought it was going to suck. I must admit I kinda fell for Johnny Storm a little. So I'll probably like this one too. Sometimes it's fun to go and see a nothing movie, turn off my analytical engine, munch popcorn and enjoy the spectacle.

Nope. Not for yonks. I don't even know what year it was, but the 'they like it' comment sent him into the hellevator, right out of my good grace. Never to return.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Eeep. My publisher put up the introduction to my book on their website and people are already expressing opinions about it. Aiyeeeee.

Always Anti-fascist!
probably better than having it sink like a rock, even if this isn't literary.
